How warm is it? My unheated bedroom gets to 40 degrees or so in the winter...

I'm a cold person, so I also have an electric blanket. When I lived in Colorado I had an electric mattress cover and a serious down comforter. However, I found I could keep the electric blanket temperature lower with this blanket. For me, it was more effective and lighter than the non-down alternative comforter I replaced.

It is very warm. I now have to turn in a fan at night because my daughter gets so hot with it on. But cold with out it.

Our master bedroom heater is set to 60 degrees Fahrenheit if outside weather is at 45-48. I'm in CA if that helps. I still think it's too thin for winter. We have to use a thicker sleep sack for our baby. Although I really like this sleep halo, but definitely not for winter.

Other than a small desk fire from melting plastic and having to run the air conditioner in February - NEeeewww... Not too hot...!That IS a joke BTW.... It's 30 INCHES C to C with Multiples of LED's for backlighting! Why would it be cold? Yes, it's warm, NO, I can't heat our house with it... I have used it every day for over a year, it's a great monitor. The AR coating is WAY over done.. The heat is on the warm side but to be expected from this size of monitor until some genius figures out the light output per watt sucked from the outlet answer. LM

It is a good heater and works well in our 150 sq ft room that is insulated. If its real cold where you are it may not work so well in an uninsulated area.

I use it in a 12x 16 ft basement workroom and the temp goes up about a degree an hour--about the same as the small kerosene heater I used to use there. But that room never gets colder than about 56 degrees and I work comfortably at about 62-64. I like it but I feel I have very specific needs.

Thanks everyone, your feedback helps a lot. The temps get down to about 25 in the early morning but always warms up to about 40-45 by mid day in Central NC. Ooops didn't see the typo... the space is 14x40x10 (560 sf with 10 ft ceiling height) fully insulated ceiling walls and floors with a ceiling fan to aid in heating or cooling circulation.

Not sure, but it kept me warm during the winter months. Obviously if its below 30 degrees Farenheight in your room you most likely need more then this comforter to keep you warm. Not sure how cold my room got, but I could see my breath a few times it was that cold, but this comforter kept me warm.

How much is a personal reaction I do not know, but mine is warm on the highest setting... not really hot hot...but in the cabin where used, the temp is about 60...and I do use a sleeping bag as well so that may make a difference ( the bag is used as a banket)

good point. this will be my first summer using it. it did wonders for the winter. my bedroom and bathroom over the garage hit 80 degrees for the first time since I owned the house. I will definitely keep an eye on the temps this summer. Worst case I should delicately be able to remove the insulation for the summer. Shoot me a message in August. I will let you know if my house burned down. lol

it gets warm, but not hot. We have it in our Kids bedroom and have never had a safety concern

What you need is a thermometer in the area you want to be 40 degrees. A heater itself can't determine that because of other factors in the room.

It has not ever did that for me but I noticed that it only goes up to 86 degrees but it heats a room with no heat in the winter, and I love it. you just have to turn it off. It has outlasted my pretty bonair fireplace and it has heated a completely cold room. So I dont know if the room ever reached 86 degrees, but it felt like 90 in the room it got so warm. This is a dependable heater that you buy for heat not comfort or auto on and off, or design. I love it.

Yes. We live in Minnesota and it keeps the bedroom toasty warm even at 25 below.

Where do you live? Has it now turned warmer there? One of the last times I used my heater, about a month ago, it only ran for about 15 minutes and then turned itself off. I happen to have a couple small thermometers in my bedroom, so I noticed the temp was warmer than the 68 setting I had the unit turned onto. I did use it a couple times after that in the bathroom which is on a very shady side of the house and the heater worked like normal. So I think it's just smart enough to know when it's not needed. This is just a guess on my part.

Make sure your bedsread is heavy enough to hold the heat. also if you are not in the bed and put your hand on it it won't seem warm. Mine was warm enough but the controller kept blinking and shutting of the heat. I replaced it with a Biddeford which doesn't seem very warm. Oh well.

It isn't going to completely heat your room up, I would suggest a larger model with more power. Or get two. I have the same size room and have Spanish tile, so it gets cold! I have 2 heaters, which makes it warmer with 2.
